德瓦南达十四吉梦预言大雄出生：《劫波经》一页

Master of the Jaunpur Kalpasutra Indian

Not on view

这页佛经来自一本带插图的《劫波经》（又名《仪轨经》），此经书含有耆那教历代祖师的传记。这一页描绘了女婆罗门德瓦南达的十四个吉梦，她后来成为大雄的母亲。所有的梦境都在寝室画面上方的符号中表现出来。页面上使用的金箔和来自青金石的深蓝色颜料都说明作者曾受伊朗绘画的影响，后者在十四和十五世纪的德里苏丹国时期广泛传入。在大体上遵循西印度的古老风格的同时，这幅作品也大胆运用色彩和纹饰，这与新兴的北印度画派风格有关，这种风格在德里及其周围地区最为兴盛。横条的经书形式保留了印度最早的插图抄本的痕迹，那种抄本曾印在经过修边并处理过的棕榈叶上。
